2.2 Unpacking and Inspecting the Adept Equipment

Before Unpacking

Carefully inspect all shipping crates for evidence of damage during transit. Pay special attention to any tilt and shock indication labels on the exteriors of the containers. If any damage is indicated, request that the carrier’s agent be present at the time the container is unpacked.

Upon Unpacking

Before signing the carrier’s delivery sheet, please compare the actual items received (not just the packing slip) with your equipment purchase order and verify that all items are present and that the shipment is correct and free of visible damage.

If the items received do not match the packing slip, or are damaged, do not sign the receipt. Contact Adept as soon as possible.

If the items received do not match your order, please contact Adept immediately.

Inspect each item for external damage as it is removed from its container. If any damage is evident, contact Adept. See How Can I Get Help? on page 15.

Retain all containers and packaging materials. These items may be necessary to settle claims or, at a later date, to relocate equipment.

2.3 Repacking for Relocation

If the robot or other equipment needs to be relocated, reverse the steps in the installation procedures that follow this chapter. Reuse all original packing containers and materials and follow all safety notes used for installation. Improper packaging for shipment will void your warranty. Specify this to the carrier if the robot is to be shipped.

CAUTION:Before unbolting the robot from the mounting surface, fold the outer arm against the Joint 2 hardstops to help centralize the center of gravity. The robot must always be shipped in an upright orientation.

2.4 Environmental and Facility Requirements

The Adept robot system installation must meet the operating environment requirements shown in the following table.

Table 2-1. Robot System Operating Environment Requirements

Ambient temperature 5 to 40° C (41 to 104° F)

NOTE: For robot dimensions, see Dimension Drawings on page 101.

2.5 Mounting the Robot

Mounting Surface

The Adept Cobra s600 and s800 robots are designed to be mounted on a smooth, flat, level tabletop. The mounting structure must be rigid enough to prevent vibration and flexing during robot operation. Adept recommends a 25 mm (1 in.) thick steel plate mounted to a rigid tube frame. Excessive vibration or mounting flexure will degrade robot performance. The following figure shows the mounting hole pattern for the Adept Cobra s600 and s800 robots.

Chapter 2: Robot Installation

WARNING: Only qualified service personnel may install or service the robot system.

NOTE:On the under side of the base there is a hole and a slot that can be used as locating points for user-installed dowel pins in the mounting surface; see the following figure. Using locating pins could improve the ability to remove and reinstall the robot in the same position.

Robot Mounting Procedure

Using the dimensions shown in the previous figure, drill and tap the mounting surface for four M12 - 1.75 x 36 mm (or 7/16 - 14 UNC x 1.50 in.) machine bolts (bolts are usersupplied).

While the robot is still bolted to the transportation pallet, connect the hydraulic lift to the eyebolt at the top of the inner link (see Figure 2-1). Take up any slack, but do not lift the robot at this time.

WARNING:Do not attempt to lift the robot at any points other than the eyebolt provided. Do not attempt to extend the inner or outer links of the robot until the robot has been secured in position. Failure to comply could result in the robot falling and causing either personnel injury or equipment damage.

Remove the four bolts securing the robot base to the pallet.

Retain these bolts for possible later relocation of the equipment.

Lift the robot and position it directly over the mounting surface.

Slowly lower the robot while aligning the base and the tapped mounting holes in the mounting surface.

3.4 Connecting User-Supplied PC to SmartController

The SmartController for Adept Cobra s600/s800 robots must be connected to a user-supplied PC for setup, control, and programming. The user loads the Adept ACE software onto the PC and connects it to the SmartController via an Ethernet cable.

PC Requirements

The Adept ACE CD-ROM will display a ReadMe file when inserted in your PC. This contains hardware and software requirements for running Adept ACE software.

NOTE:The specifications are also listed in the ACE PackXpert Datasheet, available on the Adept corporate website.

3.5 Installing Adept ACE Software

You install Adept ACE from the Adept Software CD-ROM. Adept ACE needs Microsoft .NET Framework. The Adept ACE Setup Wizard scans your PC for .NET, and installs it automatically if it is not already installed.

Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive of your PC.

If Autoplay is enabled, the Adept software CD-ROM menu is displayed. If Autoplay is disabled, you will need to manually start the CD-ROM.

NOTE:The online document that describes the installation process opens in the background when you select one of software installation steps below.

Especially if you are upgrading your Adept ACE software installation: from the Adept ACE software CD-ROM menu, click Read Important Information.

From the Adept ACE software CD-ROM menu, select:

Install the Adept ACE Software

The Adept ACE Setup wizard opens.

Follow the online instructions as you step through the installation process.

When the installation is complete, click Finish.

After closing the Adept ACE Setup wizard, click Exit on the CD-ROM menu to close the menu.

NOTE:You will have to restart the PC after installing Adept ACE software.

3.6 Cable Connections from Robot to SmartController

The following cables are shipped in the cable/accessories box.

Locate the IEEE 1394 cable (length 4.5 M).

For an AIB system, locate the XSYS cable.

Adept Cobra s600/s800 Robot, User’s Guide, Rev L1

Page 27 of 128

Chapter 3: System Installation

For an eAIB system, locate the eAIB XSYS cable or eAIB XSLV Adapter cable, which can be used with an existing XSYS cable.

Install one end of the IEEE 1394 cable into the SmartServo port 1.1 connector on the SmartController, and the other end into a SmartServo connector on the AIB or eAIB interface panel. See Figure 3-1.

AIB only:

Install the XSYS cable between the robot interface panel XSLV safety interlock connector and XSYS connector on the SmartController, and tighten the latching screws.

eAIB only:

For a new SmartController system with an eAIB, the system will be supplied with a 15 ft (4.5 m) cable with connectors for XSYS (DB9) on one end and XSYSTEM (DB44) on the other. Connect the XSYSTEM end to the eAIB, and the XSYS end to the SmartController.

For a field upgrade from an old AIB, if you already have the old XSYS(DB9-DB9) cable routed and all you want to do is adapt your new eAIB to plug into the old cable, use the eAIB XSLV Adapter cable. This is a 1 ft (250 mm) long adapter that essentially turns the XSYSTEM into the old XSLV connector. Connect the XSYSTEM end to the eAIB, and the XSLV end to the old XSYS cable.

3.7 Connecting 24 VDC Power to Robot

Specifications for 24 VDC Power

Table 3-2. Specifications for 24 VDC User-Supplied Power Supply

Customer-Supplied Power Supply 24 VDC (± 10%), 150 W (6 A)

Circuit Protection

Power Cabling 1.5 – 1.85 mm² (16-14 AWG)

Shield Termination Braided shield connected to frame ground

User-supplied 24 V power supply must incorporate overload protection to limit peak power to less than 300 W, or 8 A in-line fuse protection must be added to the 24 V power source. (In case of multiple robots on a common 24 V supply, each robot must be fused individually.)

NOTE:Fuse information is located on the AIB/eAIB electronics.

Chapter 3: System Installation

solenoids and digital I/O loads. If multiple robots are sharing a 24 V power supply, increase the supply capacity by 3 A for each additional robot.

CAUTION:Make sure you select a 24 VDC power supply that meets the specifications in the previous table. Using an under-rated supply can cause system problems and prevent your equipment from operating correctly. See the following table for recommended power supplies.

NOTE:The 24 VDC cable is not supplied with the system, but is available in the optional Power Cable kit. See Table 3-1.

Procedure for Creating 24 VDC Cable

Locate the connector and pins shown in Table 3-4.

Use 14-16 AWG wire to create the 24 VDC cable. Select the wire length to safely reach from the user-supplied 24 VDC power supply to the robot base.

NOTE:You also must create a separate 24 VDC cable for the SmartController. That cable uses a different style of connector. See the Adept SmartController User's Guide.

Crimp the pins onto the wires using the crimping tool.

Insert the pins into the connector. Confirm that the 24 V and 24 V return wires are in the correct terminals in the plug.

Prepare the opposite end of the cable for connection to the user-supplied 24 VDC power supply.

Installing 24 VDC Robot Cable

Connect one end of the shielded 24 VDC cable to your user-supplied 24 VDC power supply. The cable shield should be connected to frame ground on the power supply. Do not turn on the 24 VDC power until instructed to do so in Turning on Power on page

51. See the following figure.

Plug the mating connector end of the 24 VDC cable into the 24 VDC connector on the interface panel on the back of the robot. The cable shield should be connected to the ground point on the interface panel.
